Title: Extra keys
Post by: decker on Thu, 24 March 2016, 18:01:56

Hi,
There are 2 extra keys on my old sk-8811.
They are above the left and right key next to the up key.

They do previous and next in my web browser and explorer.
They are equivalent to Alt+Left and Alt+Right.

Do you have extra keys on your standardish keyboards ?
Do you have macros or special keys you use ?

I have the following keys remapped via AHK:

capslock::backspace
backspace::Left Click
Shift-backspace::Right Click
RAlt::Copy
AppsKey::Paste
Pause::run taskmgr.exe
Keypad Numlock::Backspace
ScrollLock::Undo
F12::Save
F9:: Minimize current window
Insert::Insert Page (for PDFs)

I also have a few alt+ buttons for certain symbols I use a lot at my work, as well as most of the buttons I've remapped available via ALT+original button.

I have a standardish Model M keyboard.

It has a few extra keys.  Only about 24 or so extra keys :p
